Oddly, there is a heart and blood pressure warning on Strattera;

a warning that sounds not unlike the one for amphetamines .. but they are worse.

In addition, my pharmacist cautioned that as I increase the dose of Strattera and

Wellbutruin to their maximums, then I am likely increasing my risk.

In Canada, I find that I have to ask to have my blood pressure done, it isnt a

thing that is done regularly, and asking for cardio exam and stress test oddly

requires that I have symptoms and a history of cardio issues … happily, I am

60 and have all sorts of cardio history. There is of course, a long wait time to

see any specialist out here .. there are usually only 1 or 2 of any sort .. cheers.
